pgsql: Make non-MVCC snapshots exempt from predicate locking. Scans wit - Mailing list pgsql-committers

Make non-MVCC snapshots exempt from predicate locking. Scans with non-MVCC
snapshots, like in REINDEX, are basically non-transactional operations. The
DDL operation itself might participate in SSI, but there's separate
functions for that.

Kevin Grittner and Dan Ports, with some changes by me.
